Coaching
Foundationsโข
You don't need to be smart in the meeting. You need five skills that let the person in front of you be smart.
โMirroring and levels of listening are incredibly effective. Highly recommend this to any CEO.โ
Sound familiar?
Your team keeps getting stuck.
You watch the engines rev. The car doesn't move. The same problems show up in the same meetings, week after week.
You leave every meeting with more to-dos.
You went in to unblock them. You came out carrying their list as well as your own.
Your days get heavier and heavier.
It feels like pulling a truck. The best answer you can come up with is "don't worry, I'll do it." So you do.
โQuestions are a form of mind control. You can direct the path of someone's mind.โ
Time to lead differently.
They leave every conversation moving faster, not slower.
Motivated. Clear-headed. With their own next step in their own words, instead of yours.
You stop carrying problems that aren't yours to solve.
The to-do list shrinks. The week gets quieter. The truck gets lighter because you're no longer the only one pulling.
People grow into leaders, under their own steam.
The insights compound. The people you hire start out-thinking you in their domain. That's the job.
What you'll practise.
The Five Coaching Foundationsโข
The five habits under the hood of every great coaching conversation. Short enough to learn in an hour, deep enough to spend a career on.
Question Workโข
Most leaders solve too early. Question Workโข is the practice of staying curious long enough for the right problem to surface โ without you having to name it.
The Listening Level-Upโข
There are levels to listening. Most CEOs are stuck at one. Moving up a level changes what you catch in a conversation, and what becomes possible.
CEO Coaching Triadsโข
Real coaching in a small group of peers. You coach, you're coached, you observe. The feedback loop that makes the learning stick.
You don't need to be smart.
You just need better questions.
